I am a young person, early gen Z. Everyone around me is very poor, directionless, and has no stability in life. It seems like over the past ten years, people were distracted with the rapid growth of modern economic conditions and other things, and in the blink of an eye youth are priced out of everything and completely lost. We actually do not own or have anything.

This is only made worse that a lot of us try to fill this void of meaning with political ideology and distract ourselves in any way possible (sex, drugs, social media, video games, etc.). We do everything in our power not to confront our life or try to find meaning, because we are all silently in despair and do not have any hope that these things can be found in the first place.

What do we even do?

I know this is a basket weaving forum, and there are threads like this often here, but I am becoming seriously worried fr no cap. There is a time bomb beneath the floor boards, and whenever it gets silent enough to hear the ticking, the world plays the next release of billie eillish

step 1: Cease consuming media at accelerating rates. You don’t need to buy the new vidya, you don’t actually enjoy it you’re filling an addiction.
step 2: Get a social hobby. Literally anything that doesn’t involve you needing to spend countless dollars on tcg, figurines or whatever. Play an instrument, join a book club, play a casual sport on a team etc. this will save you countless dollars and you will be forced to interact with other humans (important for step 4)
Step 3: Acquire a skill. This is separate from step 2, although they can be interwoven. Learn a trade or an of value profession regardless if you hate it or not, job ≠ fun and you’re literally winning the lottery if youre able to bleed steps 2&3 together.
step 4: Socialize. Society & success within it is built upon interacting with other humans. The only sour people about it, especially here, are the ones that complain about nepotism but never actually leave their bubble. This is an integral step.
step 5:????

The environment around you has become sick and your mind reflects that, though you do not realize to what degree.
In practical terms, you can prepare by saving (not in any non-USD-currency, obviously, and not in USD either when the Fed starts assuring everyone that inflation is control). However, you are also part of a sick world that triggers your despair. It's a natural reaction to hopelessness and a defense mechanism. It's actually that people who tell you not to lose hope who are prolonging the suffering, i.e. the ones currently in power. It's not that despair is good per se, but that it makes you give up, thus you stop doing what's making you suffer. Your mind is literally telling you that getting and education, going into debt for that education, going to work to pay taxes, etc. is hopeless, but you refuse to listen to it because you've been taught not to.

Lift weights. You will become more confident in everything you do, and you will learn discipline. Use the discipline to pick up a new skill or hobby. Pick something that’s simple but will give your life meaning; woodworking, astronomy, auto repair, birdwatching, beer brewing, hiking, etc. When you have things you care about, you will find purpose. Lifting weights is the key, though. We’re all gonna make it.

So if you go btc only what do you get in 20 yrs with average salary savings, 2mil? This only makes sense to have bitcoin as 2nd retirement plan and for black days. Even then why would you have extra retirement savings if you could save not for retirement but for opportunites. Most of people who are still in crypto want to make it and actually put in time and effort and investing passively just isn't worth it. If you go btc only you get same shit returns as mutual funds or wathever, with only benefit is to make yourself stable *if* portfolio is diversified correctly. You don't say to homless man to save shit.

btc returns average approx 200% year on year in dollar terms since 2009.
mutual funds are a scam, you get negative returns when you minus fees, taxes and inflation.

listen you faggots, I've already made it with bitcoin, I don't need to prove anything to you.
10 years ago I was broke as a joke, but I found discipline, understood what bitcoin is, and stacked BTC like a maniac. I lived in a single room, no gf, no car, no holidays, share bathroom with 3 other dudes for 4 years, just so I can stack more BTC. This is the way, low time preference.

Understand what Bitcoin is, any why EVERYTHING else is a shitcoin. If you meddle with shitcoins, YOU WILL GET WRECKED, I promise you.

Over the next 5 years, BTC easily could x100 - x1000, or more.

Money has the greatest network effect, money wants to be one, bitcoin is a black hole that will draw in all financial assets. The overvalued real estate market, overvalued stock market, overvalued bond market will flood into bitcoin. No one serious is going to buy dog coin or cat coin

So which one is it, coding gives you 100k starting WFH job or there are no jobs? I'm just graduating as a doctor btw and get high pay. Just get into the right fields in college and start waging.

You live in the world you create. Nobody is going to make it for you, and your fantasies of overthrowing the existing system are another layer of control to keep you busy doing nothing while the rest of us climb mountains.

Best way to make profit is to look beyond the bullshit and think of the coins that would stand the test of time. I already made my choice for the next 5 years at least: eth, bnb, xpress, coti, and ftm.

Based advice, although the political suggestion needs this disclaimer: Jews must be extinguished and you owe it to yourself to prepare for this.

Search up similar threads to these on /fit/ where niggas give genuinely good advice and follow it. Also use this place way less than you are now, life is better than you think and this place rots your brain.
